It may be possible that a new geothermal power plant will be developed in Akutan, Alaska if the electro-magnetic probes being used by a geophysical survey team indicates that a nearby geothermal resource is significant enough to produceinexpensive and reliable geothermal energy.
Currently, the city’s power cost is over 32 cents per kilowatt / hour which [...]
We have heard the arguments against solar power in the past, particularly the one about how much more expensive it is compared to electricity generated by more traditional fossil fuels. Well how does $1 billion per megawatt sound? Since the 1960s the prospect of generating solar energy from space has been on the drawing board [...]
A new waste to energy biomass power plant has been given the approval for construction at a disused site at Tilbury Docks in Essex. The power plant will be fuelled by a combination of waste and biomass products and is expected to have a capacity of producing 60MW of electricity. The biomass portion of the [...]
A new wind farm has been commissioned in New Mexico by the Edison Mission Group, Foresight Wind Energy and Karbon Zero. The 100MW wind farm named the High Lonesome Mesa wind energy project is located around 90 miles southeast of Albuquerque in Torrance County. The project became operational on July 16.
The project has cost $190 [...]
Some of the wind power states in the US are doing a good job in meeting the potential as far as favourable wind and the power that is created from it. North Dakota is one of the windy states of the US that, while it produces a lot of energy from the wind, has a [...]
